Product Overview

I recently had the pleasure of reviewing the Science Can Talking Astronomy Solar System Model Kit. As a professional reviewer who has tried and reviewed a lot of products, I was quite impressed with this product.

First off, let me say that I found the Science Can Talking Astronomy Solar System Model Kit to be an impressive educational tool for kids ages 5 7. The 8 planets orbiting the sun are projected onto any surface through the lights of our solar system model, turning the ceiling into a planetarium that children will love. It was easy to set up and use, making it a great addition to any child s bedroom or playroom. Additionally, when you touch the planet logo pattern on the base, you get interesting educational facts about astronomy and science which is sure to help children expand their knowledge of the solar system.

Another great feature of this kit is that it comes with 24 full color slides! Showing kids the solar system, spaceships, astronauts and planets was exciting for my young testers! Inserting the CD into the projector allowed us to project images onto walls and ceilings, making for a great learning experience for all involved.

The solar system kit also comes with a projector night light which can be used as both a night light and flashlight at night. This was very helpful in providing light in dark areas and alleviating any fear children may have about being alone in dark spaces. This product runs on 3 AA batteries not included so make sure to keep some stocked away if you plan on using it often!

The Science Can Talking Astronomy Solar System Model Kit is perfect as a Christmas or birthday gift for 6 year old boys and girls who have dreams of becoming astronauts one day. It allows children to understand the location of all 8 planets in our solar system and learn about their colors. I highly recommend this product if you are searching for an educational yet entertaining way to teach your child about space exploration!
